Don’t Park Your Car Here

People from neighborhood say that the owner of this what was else was Toyota Land Cruiser was punished for parking on the sidewalk everytime he arrived, leaving no space for pedestrians to pass by without a risk of getting some dirt on their cloths by the close contact with the car.

Judging by the photos, everyone parks their cars on the sidewalk there. I doubt that it was an act of “revenge”, and if it was – this is exactly the reason why Russians/Ukrainians have a bad reputation abroad. As someone said, in a civilized country this conflict would easily have been solved by calling the city guards or police.

In a civilized country the driver of the car would have been fined a million times already for parking like this. In Ukraine he wasn’t fined, and I’m not sure the cops would do anything if someone complained about him parking like that, considering how many people do it (you can see another car parked the same way in one of the pictures). This leaves people with the option to enforce their own justice.

I’m not saying that this is how it should be done, but there isn’t much else people there can do at this point.
